WorldCat Translator

Andozmh · May 4, 2013

I'm using WorldCat FirstSearch and keep getting an error message when I try to save either a list I've selected or an individual entry. I've looked through the "known translator issues" as suggested but could not find anything there.

I'm using Zotero standalone and Safari

It's possible that WorldCat FirstSearch currently doesn't work through connectors, I'll take a look.
Could you give me an OCLC number of an item you've tried to import unsuccessfully to make sure we're looking at the same thing?

I hope this is what you mean: 663914.
Thanks

yes that's it (are you the same person as Andozmh above?).

Yeah, same person. I didn't realize my wife was signed in.

Works for me. (that's the Goethe's Botany book, correct?).
Could you provide an error report from Zotero Standalone _and_ Safari (it's possible that the later will say there aren't any errors. that's fine)

Persistent translator failures with WorldCat. E.g.,
